Filing Options | Chapter 7 or Chapter 13?

As a Michigan consumer, the U.S. Bankruptcy code offers you two options, depending upon your unique circumstances.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy - Commonly referred to as a liquidation bankruptcy, the general idea is that the debtor's assets are sold by a court appointed trustee to satisfy the debtor's debts. However, an actual liquidation is a rarity. Once the bankruptcy petition is filed, an automatic stay is ordered. An automatic stay temporarily stops all collection activity, including creditor calls, home foreclosure, wage garnishments, car repossessions and other related activities.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy - A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is referred to as a reorganization bankruptcy. Similar to a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, once a debtor files for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the court issues an automatic stay, which temporarily halts all collection activities. The debtor is then placed into a repayment plan which is typically stretched up to five years.
